How to Test for Mold In Your Home

The Hidden Mold Problem

Most of my readers have difficulties in moldy environments. Many Lyme sufferers are unaware of hidden mold and mycotoxins in their homes, churches, and work environments. Some people, especially those who don’t have Lyme, don’t believe mold can impact their health but can’t figure out why they’re so sick.

If you have a chronic illness or unexplained symptoms you should look into mold testing but you may not know how to test for mold.

A few weeks ago I was approached by a well-named lab. I’m often asked if I would be willing to collaborate with other companies and websites. They’re not usually a good fit for me or you and so I decline.

I’m very careful who I choose to work with because I don’t want to waste your time.

Hi Lindsay! I have not used their products yet but I have heard their products referenced enough from well known sources that I feel confident recommending them. This is on my list to do for my basement to make sure we got all the mold when we removed our hvac system.
